Answer:
y =
x + 7
Step-by-step explanation:
the equation of a line in point- slope form is
y - b = m(x - a)
where m is the slope and (a, b ) a point on the line
y - 8 = -
(x + 5) ← is in point- slope form
with m = - 
given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is
= -
= -
= 
the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept ) , then
y =
x + c ← is the partial equation
to find c substitute (- 6, - 2 ) into the partial equation
- 2 = - 9 + c ⇒ c = - 2 + 9 = 7
y =
x + 7 ← equation of line K

Use distributive property
-1 + n= 8n + 48
Subtract n from both sides
-1= 7n + 48
Subtract 48 from both sides
-49= 7n
Divide 7 on both sides so that the only thing remaining on the right sides is the varible n.
Final Answer: -7 = n</span>
Use the slope formula y2-y1/x2-x1
3-(-7)/1-(-1) = 10/2 = 5
To find the y-intercept:
y=5x+b
3=5(1)+b
3 = 5+b
-5 -5
-2=b
The equation of the line that passes through (-1,-7) and (1,3) is
y=5x-2
X = 15
Add 5 to each side
10 + 5 = 15
The surface area would be 16 square meters!
